ASRC 1810
FWS: Grievance: In Three Texts

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

This course will consider three texts: Arthur Miller's "The Crucible," the US Declaration of Independence and the event of January 6th, 2021, as all belonging to the same phenomenon: the on-going history of grievance in American politics. Miller's drama about the Salem witch trials concatenates to the founding document of American grievance: the US Declaration of Independence. January 6th, as such, shows itself to be, in the history of US politics, not the exception or the aberration. It is the constitutive norm.

When Offered Fall.
